i whistle blows signaling the end of a days work as i pick the last apple off a the tree i was assigned today. i shimmy down the apple tree and place the juicey fruit into the basket. i look at the overflowing basket, i mean i COULD carry it, i dont want to get whipped. i quickly pick it up, but my arms cant carry this much weight. i try again, "grrrr" was the sound i made as i tried, and failed at picking up the basket. i have five minutes after the whistle blows to take the apples to the assigned spot, and leave the orchards. i already wasted two minutes attempting to pick this thing up! so, in all honesty, i started to drag the whicker basket behind me, the spot to drop off the apples was still so far away! i didnt have time! i quickly sucked all the air my lungs could hold and lifted the basket up, i probably walked five steps and then the basket slipped from my hands and the apples were all over the place! i had a minute left. i started to shove as many as i could into the basket and shoved them into my shirt, thinking it would be easier to carry them. then i see a tan hand, like mine, starting to help pick up the apples. i couldnt even look up i was so in shock, thinking it was a peace keeper, getting ready to whip me, or something along those lines. i just hurried my speed and kept shoving them into the basket and shirt as fast as i could, thats when we both grabbed for the same apple and our hands touched.
hopefully you are ok with this story line so far, if not just let me know and i can change it!
